no. you don't get it.

very reluctantly agreeing to vote for the democrats as a barely lesser evil (and not even being sure i was right...) does not imply campaigning for them between elections. it implies trying to build a third party between elections, which implies campaigning against them.

but, i'm a canadian. i can't be building parties in a different country.

worse is that i know better, otherwise i'd be active up here.

i want to be working on my art, and will be back to it once i get through this pile of things i have to get through in order to get back to it. but, if i was going to be active, it would be in trying to reclaim spaces in this ghost town of industrial ruins.

my politics have no outlet in a bourgeois parliament.

...and, that's the whole point: it's the reason i'm a valuable observer. i don't have any party allegiances, so i'm not going to get blinded by partisan bullshit.
